The Onion’s longtime co-owner and longest-serving editor-in-chief Scott Dikkers regales readers with never-before-told anecdotes from the beloved satiric newsroom in this celebration of creativity, resilience, and the transformative power of jokes delivered in AP style.
In this laugh-out-loud origin story of a world-renowned satirist and “America’s Finest News Source” Scott Dikkers treats you to a rollicking trip through the 80s, 90s, and 00s, chronicling the inception, evolution, and success of The Onion from his view at the helm. With his famous wit and wisdom Dikkers chronicles the paper’s founding, run-ins with the law, scrapes with death, and raving-mad antics of its staff in chapters like:
- Childhood Trauma Mined for Cheap Laugh
- Hurriedly Collected Life Savings Invested Wisely
- Stop Put to All This Horseplay
- Award-winning Local Author Inspired, Drunk
- Look, Area Man on TV
- Office Internet Briefly Used for Work
If you’ve ever been duped into believing an Onion headline, or simply laughed to avoid crying at how closely its fake news articles resembled reality, get a first-person view from the mastermind himself of the publication’s unparalleled legacy as the world’s most trusted news source, celebrated for its fearless commitment to truth-telling under the guise of satire.
